World Wide Knit in Public Day

Is happening between 11 and 19 June 2011. 

Where are you knitting this week?

Magazine Inspiration

I love decor magazines.  I will buy a decor magazine before I buy a fashion/woman's magazine any day. Being an expat I've been exposed to decor magazines from all over the world, and I still think South African magazines are some of the best out there.

My favourites are House & Leisure and Elle Decoration South Africa.

But I have now made a new discovery:  Vogue Living Australia.  I recently bought the May/June 2011 edition, guest edited by Ilse Crawford, and I am smitten.  It is a beautiful magazine, full of inspiration, cool ideas, great interiors and fantastic photography.

If it is on a shelf somewhere near you, get yourself a copy. Now.
